[000:00:00;00] border guards and national guardsmen defended the city for 86 days, every minute, every second of which showed fantastic heroism and training, if you doubt this, try to fight effectively alone against 10 or even twenty, while not having support from the air, saving ammunition and actually starving, if you take the statistics of mariupoli plus -minus 300 people died, 200 hryvnias, this is a crazy result if you compare how many operatives died, they did not surrender even for two days when thousands of defenders were ordered the commander-in-chief began to leave behind the stands, laying down their weapons, ahead of them were russian prisons and the horrors of reindeer herders. they wanted to show that we had hit on our own. i was waiting

for a part of them to be completely still in moscow captivity, but they will all return to the brigade because the regiment stopped accommodating all those willing to fight under the glorified brand alive. will they forever become a part of their own land posthumously, we will continue to take revenge until the enemy understands that it is so expensive to fight with us oksana radionova of stanislavysyn tsn weekly marathon only news and a meeting with defenders of mariupol, these were not the only hugs this week and another 45 of our soldiers, officers, soldiers and sergeants, and two children who had not seen their mother for a year and a half, they also managed to bring ten-year-old varvara and six-year-old renat home, the russians simply stole them and

took them out of the occupied city, and here they are finally saw their mother, a combat medic who was rescued from captivity last year in october, it is difficult to watch their meeting without tears, well, these are the first emotions of captives, exhausted and emaciated, but invincible. national guardsmen, border guards, sailors and civilians considered two of them missing and this return gives hope to those who are waiting, and just last week in ukraine, they managed to return the bodies of those who died in the deer colony in the occupied part of donetsk region, where the russians blew up barak together with the prisoners of war . so, most of the bodies have already been identified. relatives and all of ukraine will be able to say goodbye to their fellow heroes well, there is good news from the front , the commander of the ground forces of the armed forces of ukraine oleksandr

syrskyi said, we are having success in bakhmut direction, he wrote in the telegram channel, the defense forces are moving forward and the enemy is trapped in some places, so what was it like this week ukraine's counteroffensive, how cluster munitions from the americans can affect it , we talk about the main front-line events in the tsn situation room of the week with the tsn military correspondent andriy mtsyklienko an explosion that at first resembles a salute and then becomes similar to a nuclear mushroom so effectively detonated the ammunition warehouse in the occupied makiivka, which the russians hid in the unfinished yard, but our it was calculated, you can only imagine how much deadly iron was collected there, if everything exploded according to the locals. about three hours, as later clarified by the armed forces of ukraine, those were charges for rocket salvo systems . well, now they will no longer fly over ukrainian positions, and this explosion in makiivka is actually now the face of our counteroffensive, and at least they say in our armed forces, what

grades did you collect, andriyya, hello, how successful is this, our first stage, congratulations , it really looks like what we are seeing is one of the stages when the ukrainian defense of words carry out multi-vector depletion of the enemy. therefore, the task is to destroy the logistic system of supply, storage and management as much as possible, and it is successful, if you count from the beginning of the counteroffensive, 19 enemy weapons warehouses and at least 7 command observation points have been destroyed. here they are all here on this map, and yes, the destroyed warehouse that you showed in the makiivites are one of them, they did everything so that it was not visible from the air , it was not clear that this was the ammunition warehouse , but our aerial scouts, and perhaps not only aerial ones, calculated this warehouse and that

speaks not only about the accuracy of our artillery, but also about the quality of our intelligence. and about the fact that the defense force is now more focused on the exhausted russian armies than on advancing forward, the secretary of the soviet security council, oleksiy danilov, also spoke. but there is also an advance on the front, it is understood not about everything you can talk about now, but what you can look at the map, apparently we are conducting active offensive or counter-offensive actions in at least six directions show the entire front map now it is inappropriate, but we can talk about the situation, for example, near bakhmut, here we are advancing from both sides of the city very slowly, but we are advancing, and if we maintain the pace of the offensive, we will establish fire control over bakhmut and the enemy in this city will find themselves as a graze in the avdiiv direction, the enemies are trying to advance on our positions but

in fact the 53rd brigade pushed back the enemy from the settlement of opitna near avdiyivka in the zaporizhzhia direction, active hostilities continue north of the settlement with robots , and today, by the way, i contacted the guys they say that they have caught a lot of russian prisoners and this is the road to tokmak and then to melitopol er to berdyansk and if we succeed in our offensive operational actions here, then we will simply cut the russian group in half, you know it looks like this at the moment that the russians cannot understand where they need to go concentrate your reserves and you will have to lubricate your units along the entire front line, but please tell me what your sources say at the moment about the current state of this once second army of the world, because the american institute for the study of war has drawn attention to

publications of russian soldiers who complain that the morale of the regiments is falling, they have no rotation because there are no reserves and mobs in zaporozhye, let's say on the front line since october 22nd, they are completely sad there, i think their morale is really bad. look, they are starting to send even political "prisoners to us, the prisoner was caught in a draw chertinov was convicted in 2020 for organizing protests against the authorities, the russian human rights project memorial recognized him as a political prisoner, the european court of human rights deals with him, but he went to the front to fight for the same government that planted him in a still amazing country and to those who think that our counter is too slow. i want to say that i spoke with an expert of the american institute for the study of war and he has a completely different opinion. in the luhansk and kharkiv regions, these attempts did not bring any significant results. although

parts of at least six russian divisions were involved in these offensive operations , the ukrainian counteroffensive in the south also led to significant changes on the map, but i remain cautiously optimistic because ukraine is conducting complex operations at the level of companies and platoons, it would not have attracted most of its forces yet, the only reserve in tual for the russians is the 29th army, which is the weakest army in it, there is only one left brigade we very much doubt that in the event of a breakthrough by the ukrainians , the russians without reserves will be able to successfully retreat to the prepared second and third lines of defense. in the enemy's dugouts, you talked to our soldiers literally today, what they say about hard work. during the offensive, i just didn't break through now, but just imagine, the guys

have to go 3-4 km in such heat. under artillery fire 24/7, carry ammunition on their eyes knives, positions are won, and simply every such campaign turns into exploits, this is only a very, very small part of what our counterattack actually is . they are saved from death only by western equipment to blow up the soviet union. there is simply no chance in such a situation, you know, and it is very important that our fighters there on the front lines know . all of ukraine is now praying for each of you and watching with nadiya well, one more of our nadiya is cassette tapes the ammunition that the americans are finally giving us, but similar things , the truth is of the soviet model, have already been used in this war for a long time, can you tell me how

the american is better yasetny ammunition, we are not looking at our table until a little later , cluster ammunition - it is very scary, it is similar to a wave of dozens of explosions that covers you in just a second and if you were wounded, you are considered very, very lucky. i know what i am talking about with cluster munitions. russia , for example, is now shelling kherson from occupied oleshki and an ordinary projectile is, roughly speaking , a metal shell filled with explosives , critically carefully in in such a case, hitting the target with such a projectile is another matter. here is such a cluster munition, this is the m-864 projectile that we will receive from the americans in the near future . let's carefully disassemble it and see what inside, each such projectile explodes not into fragments, but into a large number of smaller so-called submunitions, accordingly, the affected area increases many times

, and the trenches are literally sown with hundreds of small explosions about the difference between american and soviet cluster bombs, firstly, the number of elements of damage is greater, there are 72 of them, and part of it is anti-personnel, part of it is against of armored vehicles, the explosion is guaranteed to cover 300 m², this is at a longer range of up to 28 km, that is, they leave the enemy with less chance to implement and this is very important during an assault of russian defense lines with the superiority of russian artillery in numbers, we simply have no other way out than to use such cluster munitions . well, you know what would be better if our western partners finally dared to give us planes in 16, because even the pilot training plan was delayed, it was supposed to start in june, and the transfer of the first planes at the beginning of the 24th year. well , now everything is delayed. well, that is exactly why i want to say that

there is no safe place on the territory of ukraine, we do not have enough modern weapons to protect our sky is another tragic proof this week we have the biggest attack on lviv at the beginning of the great war more than 1000 km from the front one of the favorite cities of ukrainians our shelter where did we go to escape from shelling people slept peacefully feeling safe because the war seems far away and here in a broken four-story building ten dead people aged 32 to 63 have already found the house, and more than 60 of them are injured. we grieve together with the families of all the dead and understand that if we had eyes f16 such a disaster would not have happened. said air force spokesman yuriy ignat, it was not possible to destroy

three missiles, one of them hit a residential building . what conclusions should we draw so that ukraine has such protection? how to shoot down missiles along their tracking route in ukraine ? 29 and su-27 to effectively intercept them for the first time 16 could do it much more effectively in fact 100%. i just want to remind you not to relax because only five people from this apartment building went down to bean storage, well, you definitely can't relax, or there is still a threat of an explosion at the zaporizhzhia npp this week, it became especially acute because the russians ordered their personnel to leave the station by july 5. well , wednesday night was especially disturbing for many. andria, if you look at the recent interview of the main ukrainian intelligence officer kyryla budanov told the times that the threat of a catastrophe at the zaporizhzhya npp is currently decreasing, and he refused to name the reasons for such a conclusion. but he stated that

certain public and non-public actions led to this actions in this area are so good that but there is less in this interview optimistic opinion that the nato summit in vilnius is already close will disappoint ukrainians, but at the same time we clearly understand that there simply cannot be a draw here if ukraine does not receive a clear signal from nato so it is received by china, iran, russia, god, and she set herself a goal and a task to prevent ukraine from joining nato, and it is unlikely that the west can afford it, because it will be one of the most expensive decisions in its history . in general, here we are with you. in a few minutes our andrew orlyak let's summarize briefly. so, the results are ukraine receiving cluster munitions from the united states and panic in the russian trenches. second, the summer ukrainian counteroffensive is more successful than the russian offensive in the winter , and experts in the west clearly understand and

recognize this. i'm a blackmailer, in my opinion , on the eve of the nato summit, but we can already see that it didn't work, it didn't work , that's why the victory will definitely be with us. glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes, this is tsn for a week and beyond about the intrigue surrounding the upcoming summit in vilnius, where ukraine wants to hear a clear signal as to whether an invitation will be heard ; the arrival of president zelenskyi should be a marker. so far , it is so tense that our obvious sympathizer, the president of lithuania, has suggested that he can veto the text of the summit declaration , and whether the leaders will correct it nato mistakes were made once in bucharest correspondents of st. andrew andriy orlyak collected all currently known facts this did not happen ukraine's accession to nato is blocked

to the north atlantic alliance, kyiv did not receive any more than a reassuring reminder that once maybe it was a decision from ukraine, which is true, as 15 years ago in 2008 in bucharest, romania , at that summit, an invitation to the most powerful military-political club on the planet was waiting, except for ukraine, and georgia was then considered the majority of countries the alliance was in favor and it is believed that it was paris and berlin that made it impossible for kyiv and tbilisi, as it is believed that everything possible and impossible for this was done personally by putin at a closed meeting of the russia nato council addressing the american president bush, putin said, "you understand, george, that ukraine is not even a state; in fact, he threatened that russia may start rejecting crimea and eastern ukraine if ukraine is accepted into nato, the alliance's rejection of ukraine and georgia did not put russia on the

fuse. was it the other way around, or in a day and a half, i.e., the day after tomorrow, history can go back a decade and a half , at least somewhere like these expectations of kyiv for freedom so as to prove that we are ready to enter the world's most powerful military-political bloc, at least in the military part of it, probably makes no sense, this is also the opinion of influential politicians of the west. france and germany, from skeptics of euro-atlantic integration , have become lobbyists for ukraine, and intermediate filters in the form of the pdc even for them now look like a formal rudiment. however, things have changed and kyiv ukraine is considering its membership how clearly the agreement is beneficial for nato itself, but there will be no membership as long as there is a war, and as soon as it ends, kyiv is counting not on an invitation, but on joining, and

in a simplified way close to the finnish and of the swedish version, it is precisely this specific and reinforced concrete agreement that the ukrainian delegation in vilnius wants to hear and i want to hear it myself, that remains the med-interi, i am afraid, so there is more the presence in vilnius of president zelensky himself ukraine wants to receive an invitation to start the process of joining nato if the leaders of the alliance do not show all their courage volodymyr zelenskyi will not come to the summit like this world agencies reported a week ago, and only on the eve of the summit itself, secretary general hnata stoltenberg reassured them, saying that everything is fine , the ukrainian leader will be there. so what will happen and the most important invitation to the north atlantic club or zelenskyi's visit is about a diplomatic game and it seems to be aimed at dispelling previous doubts i expect that all leaders will confirm that ukraine will become a member of nato okay, but it can also mean

the distant future and everyone finds their own meaning in the word "expect" for example intelligence , the expectations of our society are not met. because general bohdanov says he saw the drafts of the speeches of the nato summit participants , maybe nato will say yes, but not in vilnius. stop in more detail, no matter how many nato countries express their euro-atlantic support for ukraine on paper or in words, the main trump card from this deck is always up the sleeve of the american president. the white house can specifically block kyiv's invitation to nato now . in the states, it will first be the alliance, and later the presidential elections, where the ukrainian map will be the trump card. and that's all , of course, a theory. the second thing that ukraine wants is

to hear clear guarantees of security from future euro-atlantic relatives, we are still waiting for nato membership, for now as a fait accompli, announced by the secretary general of the alliance, we can expect the creation of a special body of the ukraine council . nato is the highest form of cooperation between countries that are not members of the alliance, and from zelensky's final tour on the eve of vilnius, ukraine's neighbors were unanimous in their support. very strong statements regarding the support of ukraine at the nato summit , the bulgarian side welcomes the significant achievements of ukraine in advancing on the path of euro-atlantic integration and confirms the intention to increase joint efforts to support the integration of ukraine into the alliance, in fact, the alliance became a nettle of nato personally to the alliance, erdoğan was good

. the finns and spedes felt good about themselves, but ukraine deserves membership in nato, and i want your presence to once again emphasize one point from the onset of a just peace no one loses, so we take a deep breath and evaluate the general statement of the lithuanian president that he is ready to veto the resolution if the decision is not acceptable, we ourselves believe so in our defense forces, the voice of a member of the alliance is one of the decisive ones. andriy orlyak tsn week 1+1 marathon and the only news 500 days since the beginning of the already full-scale cynical attack by the russians on ukraine, 500 days have passed yesterday, our people are indomitably defending themselves and the civilized world from the wild moscow horde which will kill us with its entire arsenal of death during these 500 days, the ukrainian defense forces

eliminated more than 234,000 invaders by burying them in the ukrainian chernozems and summer units of shoigu and the kadyrov squadron and private prigozhin's army was destroyed 4.78 enemy tanks, mostly analog-propelled guns, because now they are going to the front removed from monuments and produced in the 50s, and i recall that 4,3666 russian artillery systems were brought out, and the interception of intelligence , the russians claim, is higher than our counterbattery work, as well as 668 systems of jet artillery and 413 air defense systems which , as it turned out, are no longer capable of protecting moscow , our fighters shot down 315 russian aircraft and 309 helicopters. also, the ukrainian defenders crushed almost 7,000 vehicles, including tanks and sleepers and also sank 18 enemy ships and boats. that's how i want to say

the cruiser moskva went to its place. well, here are the shots that were forever etched in the memory during these 500

days , and this saturday, on the 500th day of the great war , the commander-in-chief celebrated his 50th anniversary of the armed forces of ukraine valery, a hard-working general without a soviet background, who is believed by both soldiers and their relatives, because

he often repeats about the value of the life of every military man to unravel his secrets, he is an iron general of the indomitable armed forces, because now we will not destroy this enemy , we will be destroyed. a difficult time, i believe in each of you and in our victory, people in a military family in zhytomyr oblast, i grew up in garrisons from childhood, i knew i would serve my homeland with weapons in my hands, but could hardly have imagined that he would become a celebrity from the cover, the publication will call him one of the most influential people on the planet, a modern combat general who sends to death but

values ​​the lives of his subordinates the most we count every projectile, every measure - drinking, he practically does not give interviews, but does not show his personal life behind him for more than 20 years is his wife elena, with whom the commander-in-chief is raising two daughters, the younger one chose medicine, the older one, like his father, is a military man, he values ​​freedom and is ready to fight for it, and most importantly, he knows how to do it normal 1+1 tsn week marathon the only news but the problem of the military is still a lot and this week we have a new scandal with the military commissar, this time in transcarpathia , a drunk major kostyantyn vari beat the wife of a soldier , an incident happened in uzhgorod, a military man took issue with the question why are you not at the front commissioned after the injury and contusion

of the veteran and his wife , alcohol prevented them from understanding the explanation, and the couple's attempt to dial 102 ended in an attack on a woman and, as you can see , bruises on her face, fists trained in the military, the police opened a criminal case the proceedings of the military commissar were dismissed with an accident and a scandal, as well as the now well-known throughout the country the commissioner of odesa, who impressed ukrainians with his wealth, luxurious hiv to spain and expensive cars, or is it true that to deprive him of his position, the president had to personally intervene. excombrech of the 14th mechanized brigade oleksandr okhrymenko, according to general zaluzhnyi, this army knows exactly what the modern army needs at the front and it seems like a good idea to appoint veterans who have returned from the front to such positions, and not those who have worked for decades in the system of military commissariats. well, the problem is in the judicial

system. this week there were literally explosions in the shevchenkiv district court of kyiv. on wednesday, several explosions rang out at once. 2015 under the verkhovna rada. as it turned out, he had already been waiting for a verdict from the court for eight years and constantly asked to fight at the front. why couldn't ukrainian themis solve this case for so long? who and how could to bring explosives to the courtroom, which questions among the people after the explosive became even more tsn correspondent of the week oksana radionova gathered let's go let's go this week in court, the whole country heard after the regular shevchenkivskyi district court of the capital continued the detention of the suspect ihor gumenyuk after this meeting mr. humenyuk first shut himself in the toilet, after that he closed the door and threw

some kind of explosive device at the guard, then the suspect was barcoded when the security forces blocked where he threw an explosive at the door for the second time, a dangerous object was thrown by police officers and only their lives were saved by shields police officers were injured guminyuk died from an explosive device, a patriot, a terrorist, or a victim of the judicial system, his call sign was 29 and he spent the last eight years in a pre-trial detention center while waiting for the verdict, his comrades call him a patriot and a warrior , he passed the euromaidan and fought in the east, although to fulfill the task and not in more dangerous directions, in particular, as far as he knows well

, the investigator considered the humanist a terrorist and also the prosecution had grounds for claiming that he threw a grenade on august 31, 2015, near the verkhovna rada . so the explosion killed four people and more than a hundred people were injured. the grenade went off after the deputies voted for changes to the constitution in the first reading. the amendments gave a special status to the donetsk and luhansk oblasts . to find a compromise with moscow and the minsk agreements humenyuk was among those who did not want a compromise, but ihor did not recognize the throwing of a grenade, the first grenade was simply no, i did not threw why in eight years the court did not issue a sentence for 8 years to acquit or punish although the then head of the ministry of internal affairs arsena avakov reported there is a video on which ihor humenyuk threw the grenade and serhiy kraynyak is the second
